Add TCP and UDP debugging assistants

Open zky97 opened this issue 1 month ago • 1 comments

What type of request is this?

New tool idea

Clear and concise description of the feature you are proposing

Propose adding a lightweight, integrated TCP/UDP debugger assistant to the tool, enabling users to perform basic network communication testing (sending/receiving data) directly within the existing workflow, without relying on external debugging tools. Many users of this tool (e.g., developers working on network-connected applications, IoT device testers) frequently need to verify TCP/UDP communication functionality during their workflow.

Is there example of this tool in the wild?

e.g., “https://netlab.luatos.com/”

Additional context

No response

Validations

  • [x] Check the feature is not already implemented in the project.
  • [x] Check that there isn't already an issue that request the same feature to avoid creating a duplicate.
  • [x] Check that the feature can be implemented in a client side only app (IT-Tools is client side only, no server).

Hi @zky97 , this cannot be done client side only without a backend server. Browser cannot access and open socket on TCP/UDP directly. So may be, it would be possible to add a tool that connects to some self hosted webservice and act as a terminal. This can be interesting to add such a tool. May be will add more tool like this (but not available in public demo, only on self hosted docker version)
